In an exclusive interview with ALB, Yvonne shared her thoughts on advocating for gender equality and empowering fellow women in the legal sphere. She also offered some advice to aspiring female lawyers. “The legal profession can be a tough and gruelling one. However, never give up, or lose your passion, or let anyone tell you that, as a woman, you are less capable, or will not succeed. We all encounter positive influences throughout our lives. As a beneficiary myself, I know that a supportive firm culture and environment makes all the difference to one’s legal career. Whenever the opportunity arises, pay it forward. It always adds up!”
